Which Drug Testing Panel is Right for You?

Drug testing panels, such as 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel tests (indicating the number of drugs screened), are common, with custom options also available.

What is a Drug Test?

A drug test is a scientific examination of biological specimens, like urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, and/or saliva, to assess the presence of specified drugs or their metabolites. Key uses include detecting performance-enhancing drugs in sports, employer and parole/probation screening, and determining blood alcohol content (BAC) for police operations. BAC is commonly measured via a breathalyzer, while urinalysis remains predominant for workplace and sports drug testing. Various other methods offer diverse accuracy, sensitivity, and detection periods.

Does Passive Smoke Inhalation Cause a False Positive for Marijuana?

Inhalation of "passive" smoke, such as being in a room with marijuana smokers, typically won't result in a false positive, as analytical thresholds exceed those possible through passive exposure.

Urine screen abnormalities could signal a false negative or intentional sample adulteration. Reasons might include:

• Low creatinine levels might indicate urine dilution either through excessive water consumption before testing or by water addition to the sample.
• Creatinine levels combined with specific gravity help identify diluted samples. Coloring toilet water blue is one tactic to reduce dilution risk.
• Adding specific enzymes can affect sample stability, altering pH—a factor also tested.

How Long Do Drugs Remain in Your System?

The detection window or "look-back" period for drug tests is influenced by several factors, including:

• Drug quantity taken
• Frequency of drug use
• Type of drug
• Individual metabolic rate and health
• Fluids consumed post-drug ingestion
• Exercise post-drug ingestion
• Genetic factors influencing drug response
